    Not receiving notifications any more

    I don't know if something has changed or if somehow my notifications has somehow turned off.
    I used to receive an email every time someone posted to a thread I had posted on but it has stopped working.
    For some reason I can't find away to turn it back on.
    they don't go to my spam folder I've checked

    That has always shown " instantly using email" and still shows the same thing.

    Confirmed. Thread notification emails to your yahoo email address are soft bouncing; similar thread notifications to other users' yahoo mail accounts are not soft bouncing.

    A hard bounce usually indicates a permanent mailbox error (like that user account no longer exists). A soft bounce usually indicates a temporary error (like a full mailbox, or an account over quota). So next step would be to double-check your Yahoo account and settings to see if there's anything there that catches your eye.

    Thank's Jon I will look into it I have had the same yahoo. email for nearly 20 years every couple of years it seems they try to get me to change it up to their latest format now yahoo is trying to get me to app it on to my phone and optimize it Why would I want it on my phone as the primary device. But that is the way the techno flubs see things. Everything has to be on your phone next they will want it on a wrist watch HA,ha I have them fooled there I don't wear one.

    Checked my settings for notices usage storage and a lot of other stuff .
    Settings are set to immediate notices of reply's storage shows that I have used .07% of my 1 TB 54 million email account
    not sure why they are still not working maybe no one is currently replying to threads I have posted to but that is hard to believe since I post to a lot of threads too many sometimes LOL

    Nice. Keep me posted if anything goes awry in the future. We have good logs on email sends so it's easy to track down individual mailings. BTW I hear ya on that yahoo email address; I have an old one myself that I'll probably never feel safe getting rid of.
